Question, why do consumers get punished for corporation use of non reusable bags?

I never got this tax, punish the consumer by making them pay a tax the large supermarket conglomerate should pay themselves for supplying non or barely recyclable bags.

Also paper bags, good or bad I honestly don't know. I suppose good since paper is slightly more sustainable then oil based plastics?

@AJEnglish Climate change for sure but also :"In the first year of his term, in 2019, Governor Eduardo Leite made significant changes to Rio Grande do Sul's Environmental Code, modifying or removing almost 500 points from the state's environmental legislation. The Code, which took nine years between debates, hearings, and improvements, was run over by Leite's government.
